Weekly Photography Assignment: Dramatic Skies
Each week we’ll be giving you a theme that you can submit a photo for, and we’ll choose our two favourites to be featured on the Nature TTL website. Participating in these assignments will be a great way for you to force yourself to push the boundaries of your photography and improve together as a community on the website.
Week 91: Dramatic Skies
Our theme this week is Dramatic Skies. Skies can make or break a photo, and there’s nothing better than a really dramatic skyline for a moody shot. This week, we want you to try and bring some drama into your nature images by harnessing the sky.
Here are some tutorials to help you:

Last Week’s Favourite
Here is our favourite submission from last week’s theme, Yellow. You can view all of the entries here.
This is a lovely shot by Robert which shows an American Goldfinch surrounded by lovely complimenting yellow flowers. The soft bokeh in the background, with yellow tones, creates a visually pleasing and non-distracting background to result in a strong portrait of the bird. Well done!
